Question -

Construct the following angles at the initial point of a given ray and justify the construction:
(i) 45°
(ii) 90°



Answer -

(i) 45°
Steps of construction :
(a) Draw a line segment BC.
(b) With centre B and a suitable radius draw an arc meeting BC at E.
(c) With centre E, cut off equal arcs EF and FG.
(d) Bisect FG at H.
(e) Join BH and produce to X so that ∠XBC = 90°.
(f) Bisect ∠XBC so that ∠ABC = 45°.
 
(ii) 90°
Steps of construction :
(a) Draw a line segment BC.
(b) With centre B and a suitable radius, draw an arc meeting BC at E and with centre E cut off arcs from E, EF = FG
(c) Now bisect the arc EG at H.
(d) Join BH and produce it to A.
∴ ∠ABC = 90°.
